Hi there! My name is Meowma, and I am a beautiful calico cat who is sure to win you over with my good looks and winning personality. I am a little over one and a half years old and full of energy. I am a very petite cat who is friendly and outgoing. As I am still pretty young I enjoy playing with toys, but what I like even better is playing with my favorite people. I am an affectionate girl and enjoy getting pet, particularly on my head and neck. If you stop, I will rub up against you letting you know that you are not done yet. I am pushy but lovable! I would do well in just about any home. So if you are looking for a cat that is both beautiful and friendly, give me a try. If you meet me, you will want to take me home!
